Inclement weather brought a frustrating start to the 2026 North American Cricket Cup as Bermuda’s tournament opener against the Cayman Islands was washed out at the Jimmy Powell Cricket Oval.
Persistent rain left outfield conditions unplayable, forcing the match officials to abandon proceedings before the toss could take place or a single ball could be delivered.
Both sides were eager to lay down an early marker in regional competition, but conditions in George Town showed no signs of relenting, leaving the umpires with little choice but to call time on the contest.
The abandonment sees Bermuda and the Cayman Islands share the points, with both camps turning their focus toward drier conditions and crucial upcoming group fixtures as the tournament schedule progresses.
